TStringReplaceAlgorithm enumeration

Algorithm to use in StringReplace.

Declaration

pascal

TStringReplaceAlgorithm = (sraDefault,sraManySmall,sraBoyerMoore)

TStringReplaceAlgorithm enumerates the available algorithms to StringReplace

sraDefault: Use the sysutils algorithm, which does a straightforward linear search and replace.
sraManySmall: Use an approach which is suitable for a string with many occurrences of the same small text.
sraBoyerMoore: Use a Boyer-Moore search algorithm.

Depending on the kind of data that is being treated, one or the other of these algorithms may produce faster results.

`sraDefault`	Use the sysutils algorithm, which does a straightforward linear search and replace.
`sraManySmall`	Use an approach which is suitable for a string with many occurrences of the same small text.
`sraBoyerMoore`	Use a Boyer-Moore search algorithm.
